After processing the latest NOAA data, I stated that the rate of methane growth is increasing. The news is even worse. "Well-meaning policies aimed at reducing atmospheric sulfur appear to be having the unintended consequence of lifting this sulfur 'lid' on wetland methane production."

Keep an eye on this one. All cats are beautiful, but they're also virus incubators, and this CDC report found that two humans gave it to their cats, and one human may have contracted it from a kitty. This is a NYT gift article, no paywall.

It's not enough that they're pushing fossil fuel production in the US to all-new highs -- the regime also has to destroy any attempt to research or take action on climate change. Reckless, short-sighted foolishness.

We missed a milestone. On January 15th, the 2-year running mean for the global surface temerpature anomaly reached 1.55°C above the 1850-1900 baseline. Goodbye Paris, we hardly knew ye.

Breaking news! November, 2024, came in at the second warmest in recorded history, at 1.62°C above the pre-industrial baseline. Starting in June, 2023, there have now been 18 consecutive months above the pre-2023 record high, likely the hottest string of 18 months in the last 120,000+ years.
